ledgeroscar1Heath Ledger has won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor; for his portrayal of The Joker in the The Dark Knight.

I’m glad to see Heath Ledger win this award. It’s definitely well deserved. Just because The Dark Knight was a comic book movie doesn’t make it less significant than Slumdog Millionaire, Milk, or The Reader. Ledger took the role and made it what it is. The Joker can never be played again without comparison to what Ledger did.

Congratulations Heath, and rest in peace.

So, the Dark Knight is now out on DVD and Blu-ray. Still haven’t seen it? Why not? What the hell is your problem? You think you’re better than a Batman movie? Oh, you went to see Mamma Mia instead? You deserve to not be alive anymore.

Now of course seeing movies on the big screen is always better than watching it at home, but if you happened to not witness the biggest event of the year, you can now at your own home.

The Dark Knight was released on DVD and Blu-ray on Tuesday, November 9th, and not surprisingly, sold like hot cakes. Dark Knight sold 3 million copies on DVD, and 600,000 copies on Blu-ray, on the first day alone! I can account for 1 of the DVD buys.

The economy is in the crapper, people cannot find jobs, but nobody can afford to pass up seeing The Dark Knight.

*Insert Picard facepalm here.* Seriously, I had high hopes for Sonic in the future, but I just don’t think anybody wants to play the same old game anymore. Give me Sonic 1 or Sonic 2 on the Sega Genesis, or give me Sonic Adventure 1 or 2 on the Sega Dreamcast, and I’ll play it and love it, but give me any other Sonic game, and I just might punch you in the face. You know what would revive the Sonic franchise? A good game. I bet if they took Super Mario Galaxy and skinned it with Sonic characters, it would be a huge hit. Why can’t they give Sonic an amazing and original game? I grew up on Sonic and Mario. I think it’s easy to guess which of those two characters is still a dominant force in gaming. Maybe this game will turn out good. I hope so…
